Putin may meet Poroshenko

Merkel’s visit to Ukraine is associated in particular with the celebration of the centenary of the First World war, will be held in Paris on November 11. Merkel wants to try to organize an informal meeting of “Norman Quartet.”

In celebration of the centenary of the First World war in Paris, is also invited Poroshenko. And not just. Merkel attempts to revive the “Normandy format”, despite the pause, which gave Putin. The German Chancellor wants to discuss the topic of peacekeepers in the “Norman Quartet”, and with the trump. Merkel, perhaps, intends to complete his term as Chancellor to achieve significant progress in resolving the conflict in the Donbass. She wants to leave politics, with concrete results on the Minsk agreements and peacekeepers, – says Vladimir Fesenko.

Expert notes: Merkel wants to implement its plan for the Donbas. She has a lot invested in the Minsk agreement, and in the Normandy format, and is not going to give up halfway.

“There is information that Merkel is a full-fledged plan for the peacekeepers with a compromise of ideas. Apparently, this plan was discussed in August with Putin. Now with Poroshenko. Will attempt in a broad format in Paris. I wonder whether Merkel to press Putin? It is important that the negotiation process did not stop to break negotiations. Otherwise it is fraught with serious consequences,” – said Fesenko.

We will remind, on 1 November, German Chancellor Angela Merkel arrived in Kiev with a one-day visit to meet with the top leadership of Ukraine. The focus was the situation in the Donbas, execution of Minsk agreements and the introduction of the peacekeeping mission.
